README

Welcome to the Teams SDK ([Docs](https://microsoft.github.io/teams-sdk/))

Teams SDK represents a fundamental reimagining of how Teams apps and AI agents are built, while maintaining compatibility with existing botframework-based agents. This new version focuses on developer experience, simplified architecture, and enhanced AI capabilities.

For a detailed explanation of the motivations and architectural decisions behind v2, please see our [WHY.md](https://microsoft.github.io/teams-sdk/why) document.

We have a new name!

We are very excited to announce that "Teams AI" is now officially "Teams SDK"! This change reflects our commitment to providing a comprehensive development framework for building all types of Teams applications, including AI-powered agents.

Code repositories per SDK language

The SDK code for each language are in individual repos:

For language-specific bugs or issues, please use the Issues tab in the respective language repository.

Agent Accelerator Templates

You can find a set of open-source agent accelerator templates in the [Teams Agent Accelerators repository](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-agent-accelerator-templates). These templates provide a great starting point for building your own agents using the Teams SDK.

Quick start

The Teams Developer CLI makes it easy to bootstrap your first agent. First, install the CLI via NPM:

npm install -g @microsoft/teams.cli

Next, use the CLI to create your agent:

npx @microsoft/teams.cli new  quote-agent --template echo
